New description:

 This is a regression with builds 6.0.4 as well as 5.4.4.  I had to revert
 to 5.2.2 which works as expected.

 The problem:

 I only have a password to authenticate against this SSH server.  Command-
 line ssh used to give this error because it tries other client
 certificates before the server gives up.  I had since then changed
 ~/.ssh/config to have these two lines


 {{{
 Host ''the.host.name.com''
     PreferredAuthentications password

 }}}

 command-line ssh works fine.  CyberDuck used to work fine but upgrading to
 latest build broke this.

 P.S. {{{curley}}} braces in this screen is misspelt. It should be
 ''curly''
